Supreme Court
Brief :
The Hon’ble Apex Court held that it cannot be the intention of the Legislature to provide rebate only on one item i.e. either on inputs or final products. It was further held that giving such restrictive meaning to Rule 18 of the Excise Rules would not only be anomalous and absurd, but, it would defeat the very purpose of grant of remission from payment of Excise duty in respect of the goods which are exported out of India.
Hence, the Appellant was held to be entitled to both the rebates i.e. amount of duty paid on inputs used in the manufacturing of exported goods as well as the amount of duty paid on exported final goods, under Rule 18 of the Excise Rules.
